    80 series diesel click no start

    Yeah, both batteries good and diagnostics being done with a charger still connected just to make sure I've got good power. You still doing parts?

    80 series diesel click no start

    Long time no see fellas. Poor Tonka has been mothballed while I've been recovering from chemo. Anyway, I've got the dreaded "click no start" Neither the starter relay, nor the change over relay are getting a signal so I'm looking in the direction of the changeover timer relay, anyone got the...

    An 'is this amount of rust OK' thread...

    It's had a shit type underseal job to tart it up, but you'll be unlucky to get chassis corrosion anyway. Look closely at the rear axle top link mount pillars. A boat launching 80 will have paper thin mounts or thick with loose rust mounts hiding paper thin mounts. The panhard rod mount also...

    80 series front diff WANTED

    Hi all. 1994 MANUAL 4.2 TD Judging by the grumbling going on the front diff doesn't have long left, there was me thinking the CV's were going to go first:lol: Has anyone got a half decent front locking diff for a manual 4.2? Doesn't have to be perfect, doesn't have to be church mouse quiet...

    Electrical fault after welding

    Yeah, yeah. I know. :icon-rolleyes::eusa-naughty: So long story short, i've currently got boost light, charging light, timing belt light, brake warning and a couple of other lights stuck on but the gauges are working fine. Any idea which widget I've blown? Surely I'm not alone....

    Avoid Llangollen 30/31 May 2015

    Basically a big sponsored walk which will include one of the lanes and a big mountain bike weekend means avoid the place like the plague that weekend. In fact it's probably an idea to keep clear full stop for a while, it's a political bloody war zone around there right now.:shh: keep an eye...

    Taller tyres for an 80 ?

    Ok, sounds easy. Hmmmmm, it's not. I'd like some 35's, BUT apart from simex alike copies with fairly extreme tread there are no 10" or even 11" wide 35's The problem is I'm following discos and 90 ' through welsh ruts and stone and it's ripping the hell out of my sidewalls. I'm already 2"...

    Manual gearbox oil discussion.

    What do you think about Morris Eco - trans 75w/80 ? Not quite the right heat range but then this is the UK. ... gl4 rated with no ep and as used by trucks with gear boxes an awful lot like ours.

    Manual gearbox oil discussion.

    I use Morris oils all the time but I had the same problem with my Iveco gearboxes, I ended up getting synthetic gearbox oil for trucks from smith and Allen. The only people who did a non ep grade gearbox oil as approved by Man etc in 5l containers as opposed to 255l barrels..

    Condensation

    The problem is the difference in airflow. The open fire drew air from the vent AND the room for combustion but it also dragged excess air along with it and sent it up the chimney, The wood burner is drawing fresh air from the vent for combustion but isn't drawing that extra air along with it...
